my best bet is that you have a composed computer, that's usually a big mistake and you are better off with a entire new computer then just buying parts *reason* is that the factory settings and hardware are tuned onto the parts as they were manufactured. In your case it would be best to do the following. Check in your Bios and set it up to your graphical card, check the monitor drivers ,or install video drivers from nividia.com for your graphical card.

turns out it was the samsung monitor drivers cd, the drivers are there but they are hard to install being there are several more steps than usual you have to take, figgured it out though, now all the games work.
